Opening/Closing Date and Time: See Block 9 “OFFER DUE DATE/LOCAL TIME” on page 1 Facsimiles relative this solicitation are not authorized.

OFFER EVALUATION:

The Government intends to evaluate this proposal and award the contract without discussions with the offeror.

Therefore, the offeror's initial proposal should contain the offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary.

NOTICE TO OFFEROR'S: Proposals will be evaluated for both technical merit and price reasonableness following the evaluation procedures in this solicitation. Technical Merit will be evaluated based on Past Performance using the offeror's SPRS score for Federal Supply Class (FSC) 8410. An overall SPRS summary score with also be evaluated for the offeror's Cage code for an overall summary score of all FSCs.

In order to provide full consideration of your qualification for contract award, you are encouraged to ensure that the information furnished in support of your technical proposal is factual, accurate and complete. The Department of Defense (DoD) is committed to applying “Best Value” contracting as a means to rely on industry for timely delivery of quality products, while reducing the Government's administrative costs associated with contractor oversight. To this end, we are evaluating factors in addition to price under this solicitation. Since effective production and quality control practices translate into better quality products, fewer delinquencies, reduced administrative costs and lower overall costs to the Government, we will be using your Technical Proposal to assess the efficiency of your production methods and the effectiveness of your quality control procedures.

Moreover, those offerors who consistently demonstrate an ability to deliver on time while consistently improving the quality of the products they produce will receive more favorable consideration than those who do not. You may provide additional technical information you believe will enhance you proposal; however, overly elaborate presentations are not desired. Failure to provide the information requested may render the offeror's proposal technically unacceptable. The Government reserves the right to verify the information provided for evaluation purposes. Offerors are required to submit a technical proposal consisting of the following technical evaluation factors:

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 4 OF 39 PAGES

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM (CONTINUED)

(1) The Contractors will be required to submit (1) Business Proposal to be filled out in Section B

NOTE: if the ability to upload proposals is unavailable for any reason, this does not constitute an acceptable reason for a late bid. Please refer to you're the Acquisition Specialist for other acceptable submission methods.

An offeror must be registered in DIBBS, and able to log in, to submit an electronic proposal. Therefore, if not already registered, offerors are encouraged to register in DIBBS immediately. Offerors who are already registered in DIBBS are encouraged at this time to ensure they can log into their DIBBS account. An offeror's failure to register or be able to log in, or who experiences an inability to upload or submit a proposal on DIBBS for any reason other than a DIBBS system issue that has been confirmed by the DIBBS Help Desk, will not constitute an acceptable reason for a late submission. If an unanticipated event interrupts DIBBS processes which prevents offerors from submitting proposals to DIBBS by the solicitation's closing date and time, the solicitation's closing date/time will be extended to the same time of day on the next business day on which DIBBS processes resume.

NOTE: Proposal submissions using DIBBS are subject to electronic interface latency which can result in transmission delays. Offerors must consider transmission delays in the DIBBS system when submitting proposals for consideration and assume the risk of late transmission/submission. Offerors are encouraged to submit electronic proposals in DIBBS as early as possible to account for possible transmission delays.

However, all BID packages must be received on or before the date and time listed in BLOCK 9 on Page 1 of the solicitation.

NON-GOVERNMENT FURNISHED MATERIAL (GFM)

The Government has recently changed its procedures regarding Government Furnished Material (GFM). GFM will no longer be provided to Contractors that are awarded contracts for end item dress clothing contracts. The Government will still make available to the Contractor, for use in connection with and under the terms of this contract, the material set forth below, and the Contractor shall utilize such materials in the furnishing of supplies hereunder. All other types of materials required in the performance of this contract shall be furnished by the Contractor.

Note: The material cloth for these items is NON-GFM (Non-Government Furnished Material).

Cloth, Air Force, Poly/Wool, Serge, Blue Shade #1620 ("AF Cloth")

Location: VSTZ

Peckham SD0119

Lansing, MI

Current Cost of Material per Yard: $28.33

It is now the responsibility of the Contractor to purchase the material listed above from DLA Troop Support as needed. The Government shall be the sole source of the supply of the materials listed above and only such material obtained from the Government under this contract may be used in the performance of this contract.

PRICING The material will be priced at the current DLA Troop Support contract price for the material being purchased with an additional 2% inflation added on for each Tier period. The material price will be listed in the solicitation and the Contractor is required to submit pricing inclusive of the material price (CMT + Material price).

The Contractor can purchase any amount of cloth desired that does not exceed 2% of the total yardage required to produce the item based on the Government BOM. In order not to affect planning and the purchase of cloth by

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 5 OF 39 PAGES

SPE1C1-26-Q-0192

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM (CONTINUED)

the Government, unlimited quantities of cloth cannot be sold to the Contractor. In the event that the Contractor would like material in excessive quantities, defined as purchasing more than 2% of the total unit allowance determined by the Government BOM for that delivery order, the Contractor may submit a request for the excess material. Depending on fabric inventory levels, the Contracting Officer may, at his or her discretion, approve the request for some or all of the excessive quantities.

PAYMENT Upon the delivery of end items, the Contractor will be paid the agreed upon unit price for the contract.

It is the responsibility of the Contractor to pay the balance owed to the Government for the material as end items are shipped and payments are received. The Contractor will receive a bill from DFAS for the amount of the cloth purchased that will outline the procedures for payment. A copy of the bill must be submitted with every payment.

The Contractor will only receive one bill and must make copies of it if incremental payments will be made. This ensures there is a copy of the bill linking every incremental payment made. The balance due for the purchase of the cloth must be paid within 180 days after the date of the bill for the purchase of the material. In the case that delivery schedules have been extended, the Government may extend the payment terms beyond 180 days. The Contractor will have a continuing balance owed to the Government for the material until end items are shipped and payments are received by the Contractor and made to the Government. In the case that a Contractor makes a late payment or no payment at all, a standard rate of interest will be charged to the Contractor's account which is determined by DFAS. Failure to make payment may also impact the placement of future delivery orders on this contract and will be considered as a part of any future assessment of past performance. Final payment on this contract will be withheld until all material is paid for. Note that once the sale is made for the cloth, the Contractor assumes all responsibility for the cloth including care and safety.

CONTRACTOR REQUEST FOR MATERIAL The Contractor shall submit a properly executed DLA Troop Support Form, Prime Contractor's Request for the Purchase of Material, to the Contract Specialist. The procedure for requesting material has not changed. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to request the material in sufficient time to comply with the delivery schedule of the contract. The Government reserves the right to ship partial orders of material depending on the current available stock. The Contractor is not required to purchase the entire amount of material at one time that is required to complete the delivery order. The Contractor may purchase the entire amount of material required to complete the delivery at one time and schedule partial shipments for later dates. If the cloth required to complete a delivery order is purchased all at once, payment is due 180 days after the date of the sale. If smaller increments are purchased, payment is due 180 days from each incremental sale. The Government will not purchase extra fabric leftover after the end of a contract.

PROCEDURES

1. All concerns regarding material should be directed to the Contracting Officer by letter or email within 30 days of the purchase of the cloth. The Contracting Officer will respond within three business days of receipt. The Contractor must notify the QAR and Contracting Officer within the timeframes listed above when there is an issue regarding quality of the material. Ultimately, it is the Contracting Officer's decision to determine a solution.

2. The Government reserves the right to furnish cloth on rolls or folded. Unless sponged, rolls should contain approximately 100 yards of fabric at approximately 60" width. The Government may furnish material in yards and widths other than those specified. However they should not be less than 30 yards in length. Regardless of widths furnished, the material shall not be deemed deficient or defective when the width furnished differs from the specified width by less than plus or minus 2 inches. If more than plus or minus 2 inches, the Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment.

3. Material furnished shall be charged to the Contractor's account in multiples of one yard. Where material furnished contains fractions of a yard, the yardage shall be rounded to the whole yard. Fractions of less than one-

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 6 OF 39 PAGES

SPE1C1-26-Q-0192

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM (CONTINUED)

half yard will be rounded to the next lower full yard; fractions of one-half yard or more will be rounded to the next higher full yard.

4. The Government reserves the right to provide not more than 10% of the material in short pieces. The Contractor shall cut and use short pieces furnished and/or generated and not retain them for return to the Government.

5. For the determination of defective material for excessive visual defects, the Contractor's examination of the material shall be in strict accordance with the quality assurance provisions for the fabric, including random sampling procedures and, as applicable, federal standard (FED-STD) 4 or military standard (MIL-STD) 655 and the applicable Sears slub (i.e. knot in yarn) and knot gauges.

The Contractor shall inspect fabric as it is opened and shall set aside higher point count (metric for assessing fabric defects) rolls for return as either "excess" or "defective" goods. Over-point count fabric set aside prior to cutting by the Contractor shall be returned to the shipment in question prior to random sampling. Upon completion of the examination, the Contractor shall immediately provide the Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) with a written notification of the alleged deficiencies, including the findings of its own examination of the material using a cloth perch (machine which allows unrolling/rerolling of fabric to search for defects). As a minimum, the Contractor shall provide the following data:

(A) Type of material (B) Nature of nonconformance (including examination report of alleged defective point count) (C) Number of rolls or pieces in shipment (D) Name of manufacturer of material (E) Contract number(s) of material (F) Lot identification of material (G) Total number of yards in shipment (H) Acceptable quality limits (or acceptable quality level (AQL), if applicable) (I) Number of rolls or yardage in sample (J) Acceptance number (K) Recommended disposition

The Contractor shall provide the QAR access to a cloth perch, which the QAR will use to examine the material in question. The QAR shall verify the damage, defect, shortage, narrow width, or discrepancy as documented in the Contractor's notification, and will report the findings of the verification to the Contracting Officer. If the Contractor fails to notify either the Government QAR or the Contracting Officer within 5 days of discovery of any damage, defect, shortage, narrow width or discrepancy in the Government material, no equitable adjustment will be made in the delivery or performance dates or the contract price.

The Contractor shall not cut or use such material, or in the event the damage, defect, shortage, narrow width or discrepancy is such that it could not reasonably have been discovered until after cutting or further processing, the Contractor shall not further process such material pending instructions from the Contracting Officer. If replacement is to be made, the Government shall provide replacement at its own expense, including transportation costs. When the return of the material is authorized, the Contractor will ship it and include a copy of the Contractor's notification of deficiencies (including examination report) and the QAR's deficiency verification.

6. In cases of Government delay, failure to furnish the requested material, the Government has furnished damaged, defective, short, narrow width, or other discrepancies in the material, the Contracting Officer, upon written request of the Contractor, shall equitably adjust the delivery or performance date and any other contractual provisions effected thereby, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.243-1, Changes--Fixed-Price. If the Contractor does not request such an adjustment 30 days of the purchase of the cloth, no adjustment will be made. Under no circumstances shall the Government include as an element of any adjustment under this clause any amount for loss of prospective profits. 7. The length marked on the piece tickets of cloth made available as material reflects the measurement metered during preparation for delivery of the cloth, using mechanical measuring devices. An inherent disparity exists between these measurements and cutting table

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 7 OF 39 PAGES

SPE1C1-26-Q-0192

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM (CONTINUED)

measurements, because the latter are subject to many variables that cannot be controlled. Accordingly, claims for shortages based on cutting table measurements will be considered for allowance only when the shortage on an individual piece exceeds 3-1/2% of the length marked on the piece ticket. All other claims for shortages shall be based on measurements using a mechanical measuring device (calibrated in accordance with the current edition of military standard (MIL-STD) 45662, Calibration System requirements) activated positively by direct contact, with the fabric in continuous motion. These measurements can be determined by using such devices as true meter, length counter on cloth perch, or similar devices.

SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS

1. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for making transportation arrangements for the pickup and delivery of this material, using its own truck, or a leased or rental carrier. These arrangements shall be specified by the

Contractor on the DLA Troop Support Form, Prime Contractor's Request for the Purchase of Material. The Government material will be available for pickup not later than 21 calendar days after receipt of the original DLA Troop Support Form, Prime Contractor's Request for the Purchase of Material.

2. Prior to pick-up, the Contractor shall contact the storage location to coordinate the exact date for pickup and provide the name of the motor carrier to be used. If such pickup is not made within 10 calendar days after the availability date, or the actual date the material becomes available, whichever date is later, the Government reserves the right to return the material to storage, unless a revised date for its pickup has been requested by the Contractor. If the material has to be returned to storage, the Government will not be liable for any additional expense, delay, or loss incurred by the Contractor as a result of missing a scheduled shipment.

3. Shipping of the material from the Government to the Contractor shall be F.O.B. Origin with all material picked up at the location specified and made available at the shipping platform. Loading into the vehicle will be the responsibility of the Contractor or its representative. Delivery of the material shall be deemed to be accomplished when the material has been picked up and loaded into the vehicle by the Contractor, or its authorized representative. Title to and risk of loss of or damage to the material shall pass to the Contractor upon delivery.

Note: The BOM is included for reference only. The government has the right to revise the BOM at any time.

(i) Require, by written notice, the prompt correction or replacement of any supplies or parts thereof (including preservation, packaging, packing, and marking) that do not conform with the requirements of this contract within the meaning of paragraph (b)(1) of this clause; or

(ii) Retain such supplies and reduce the contract price by an amount equitable under the circumstances.

(3)(i) If the contract provides for inspection of supplies by sampling procedures, conformance of supplies or components subject to warranty action shall be determined by the applicable sampling procedures in the contract. The Contracting Officer.

(A) May, for sampling purposes, group any supplies delivered under this contract;

(B) Shall require the size of the sample to be that required by sampling procedures specified in the contract for the quantity of supplies on which warranty action is proposed;

(C) May project warranty sampling results over supplies in the same shipment or other supplies contained in other shipments even though all of such supplies are not present at the point of reinspection; provided, that the supplies remaining are reasonably representative of the quantity on which warranty action is proposed; and

(D) Need not use the same lot size as on original inspection or reconstitute the original inspection lots.

(ii) Within a reasonable time after notice of any breach of the warranties specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause, the Contracting Officer may exercise one or more of the following options:

(A) Require an equitable adjustment in the contract price for any group of supplies.

(B) Screen the supplies grouped for warranty action under this clause at the Contractor's expense and return all nonconforming supplies to the Contractor for correction or replacement.

(C) Require the Contractor to screen the supplies at locations designated by the Government within the contiguous United States and to correct or replace all nonconforming supplies.

(D) Return the supplies grouped for warranty action under this clause to the Contractor (irrespective of the f.o.b. point or the point of acceptance) for screening and correction or replacement.

(4)(i) The Contracting Officer may, by contract or otherwise, correct or replace the nonconforming supplies with similar supplies from another source and charge to the Contractor the cost occasioned to the Government thereby if the Contractor.

(A) Fails to make redelivery of the corrected or replaced supplies within the time established for their return; or

(B) Fails either to accept return of the nonconforming supplies or fails to make progress after their return to correct or replace them so as to endanger performance of the delivery schedule, and in either of these circumstances does not cure such failure within a period of 10 days (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure.

(ii) Instead of correction or replacement by the Government, the Contracting Officer may require an equitable adjustment of the contract price. In addition, if the Contractor fails to furnish timely disposition instructions, the Contracting Officer may dispose of the nonconforming supplies for the Contractor's account in a reasonable manner. The Government is entitled to reimbursement from the Contractor, or from the proceeds of such disposal, for the reasonable expenses of the care and disposition of the nonconforming supplies, as well as for excess costs incurred or to be incurred.

(5) The rights and remedies of the Government provided in this clause are in addition to and do not limit any rights afforded to the Government by any other clause of this contract.

(End of Clause)

52.248-1 VALUE ENGINEERING (JUN 2020) FAR

As prescribed in 48.201, insert the following clause:

(a) General. The Contractor is encouraged to develop, prepare, and submit value engineering change proposals (VECP's) voluntarily. The Contractor shall share in any net acquisition savings realized from accepted VECP's, in accordance with the incentive sharing rates in paragraph (f) below.

(b) Definitions. Acquisition savings, as used in this clause, means savings resulting from the application of a VECP to contracts awarded by the same contracting office or its successor for essentially the same unit. Acquisition savings include --

(1) Instant contract savings, which are the net cost reductions on this, the instant contract, and which are equal to the instant unit cost reduction multiplied by

CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 13 OF 39 PAGES

SPE1C1-26-Q-0192

SECTION I - CONTRACT CLAUSES (CONTINUED)

the number of instant contract units affected by the VECP, less the Contractor's allowable development and implementation costs;

(2) Concurrent contract savings, which are net reductions in the prices of other contracts that are definitized and ongoing at the time the VECP is accepted;

and

(3) Future contract savings, which are the product of the future unit cost reduction multiplied by the number of future contract units in the sharing base. On an instant contract, future contract savings include savings on increases in quantities after VECP acceptance that are due to contract modifications, exercise of options, additional orders, and funding of subsequent year requirements on a multiyear contract.

Collateral costs, as used in this clause, means agency cost of operation, maintenance, logistic support, or Government-furnished property.

Collateral savings, as used in this clause, means those measurable net reductions resulting from a VECP in the agency's overall projected collateral costs, exclusive of acquisition savings, whether or not the acquisition cost changes.

Contracting office includes any contracting office that the acquisition is transferred to, such as another branch of the agency or another agency's office that is performing a joint acquisition action.

Contractor's development and implementation costs, as used in this clause, means those costs the Contractor incurs on a VECP specifically in developing, testing, preparing, and submitting the VECP, as well as those costs the Contractor incurs to make the contractual changes required by Government acceptance of a VECP.

Future unit cost reduction, as used in this clause, means the instant unit cost reduction adjusted as the Contracting Officer considers necessary for projected learning or changes in quantity during the sharing period. It is calculated at the time the VECP is accepted and applies either (1) throughout the sharing period, unless the Contracting Officer decides that recalculation is necessary because conditions are significantly different from those previously anticipated or (2) to the calculation of a lump-sum payment, which cannot later be revised.

Government costs, as used in this clause, means those agency costs that result directly from developing and implementing the VECP, such as any net increases in the cost of testing, operations, maintenance, and logistics support. The term does not include the normal administrative costs of processing the VECP or any increase in this contract's cost or price resulting from negative instant contract savings.

Instant contract, as used in this clause, means this contract, under which the VECP is submitted. It does not include increases in quantities after acceptance of the VECP that are due to contract modifications, exercise of options, or additional orders. If this is a multiyear contract, the term does not include quantities funded after VECP acceptance. If this contract is a fixed-price contract with prospective price redetermination, the term refers to the period for which firm prices have been established.

Instant unit cost reduction means the amount of the decrease in unit cost of performance (without deducting any Contractor's development or implementation costs) resulting from using the VECP on this, the instant contract. If this is a service contract, the instant unit cost reduction is normally equal to the number of hours per line-item task saved by using the VECP on this contract, multiplied by the appropriate contract labor rate.

Negative instant contract savings means the increase in the cost or price of this contract when the acceptance of a VECP results in an excess of the Contractor's allowable development and implementation costs over the product of the instant unit cost reduction multiplied by the number of instant contract units affected.

Net acquisition savings means total acquisition savings, including instant, concurrent, and future contract savings, less Government costs.

Sharing base, as used in this clause, means the number of affected end items on contracts of the contracting office accepting the VECP.

Sharing period, as used in this clause, means the period beginning with acceptance of the first unit incorporating the VECP and ending at a calendar date or event determined by the contracting officer for each VECP.

Unit, as used in this clause, means the item or task to which the Contracting Officer and the Contractor agree the VECP applies.

Value engineering change proposal (VECP) means a proposal that --

(1) Requires a change to this, the instant contract, to implement; and

(2) Results in reducing the overall projected cost to the agency without impairing essential functions or characteristics; provided, that it does not involve a change --

(i) In deliverable end item quantities only;

(ii) In research and development (R&D) end items or R&D test quantities that is due solely to results of previous testing under this contract; or

(iii) To the contract type only.

(c) VECP preparation. As a minimum, the Contractor shall include in each VECP the information described in subparagraphs (1) through (8) below. If the proposed change is affected by contractually required configuration management or similar procedures, the instructions in those procedures relating to format, identification, and priority assignment shall govern VECP preparation. The VECP shall include the following:

(1) A description of the difference between the existing contract requirement and the proposed requirement, the comparative advantages and disadvantages of each, a justification when an item's function or characteristics are being altered, the effect of the change on the end item's performance, and any pertinent objective test data.

(2) A list and analysis of the contract requirements that must be changed if the VECP is accepted, including any suggested specification revisions.

(3) Identification of the unit to which the VECP applies.

(4) A separate, detailed cost estimate for (i) the affected portions of the existing contract requirement and (ii) the VECP. The cost reduction associated with the VECP shall take into account the Contractor's allowable development and implementation costs, including any amount attributable to subcontracts under the Subcontracts paragraph of this clause, below.

(5) A description and estimate of costs the Government may incur in implementing the VECP, such as test and evaluation and operating and support costs.

(6) A prediction of any effects the proposed change would have on collateral costs to the agency.

(7) A statement of the time by which a contract modification accepting the VECP must be issued in order to achieve the maximum cost reduction, noting any effect on the contract completion time or delivery schedule.

(8) Identification of any previous submissions of the VECP, including the dates submitted, the agencies and contract numbers involved, and previous Government actions, if known.

(d) Submission. The Contractor shall submit VECP's to the Contracting Officer, unless this contract states otherwise. If this contract is administered by other than the contracting office, the Contractor shall submit a copy of the VECP simultaneously to the Contracting Officer and to the Administrative Contracting Officer.

(e) Government action. (1) The Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor of the status of the VECP within 45 calendar days after the contracting office

SECTION I - CONTRACT CLAUSES (CONTINUED)

receives it. If additional time is required, the Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor within the 45-day period and provide the reason for the delay and the expected date of the decision. The Government will process VECP's expeditiously; however, it will not be liable for any delay in acting upon a VECP.

(2) If the VECP is not accepted, the Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor in writing, explaining the reasons for rejection. The Contractor may withdraw any VECP, in whole or in part, at any time before it is accepted by the Government. The Contracting Officer may require that the Contractor provide written notification before undertaking significant expenditures for VECP effort.

(3) Any VECP may be accepted, in whole or in part, by the Contracting Officer's award of a modification to this contract citing this clause and made either before or within a reasonable time after contract performance is completed. Until such a contract modification applies a VECP to this contract, the Contractor shall perform in accordance with the existing contract. The decision to accept or reject all or part of any VECP is a unilateral decision made solely at the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

(f) Sharing rates. If a VECP is accepted, the Contractor shall share in net acquisition savings according to the percentages shown in the table below. The percentage paid the Contractor depends upon (1) this contract's type (fixed-price, incentive, or cost-reimbursement), (2) the sharing arrangement specified in paragraph (a) above (incentive, program requirement, or a combination as delineated in the Schedule), and (3) the source of the savings (the instant contract, or concurrent and future contracts), as follows:

Contractor's Share of Net Acquisition Savings [Figures in Percent]

1The Contracting Officer may increase the Contractor's sharing rate to as high as 75 percent for each VECP.

2Same sharing arrangement as the contract's profit or fee adjustment formula.

3The Contracting Officer may increase the Contractor's sharing rate to as high as 50 percent for each VECP.

(g) Calculating net acquisition savings. (1) Acquisition savings are realized when (i) the cost or price is reduced on the instant contract, (ii) reductions are negotiated in concurrent contracts, (iii) future contracts are awarded, or (iv) agreement is reached on a lump-sum…
